Important safeguards

WARNING

Pioneer does not recommend that you install
your navigation system yourself. We recom­mend that only authorised Pioneer service
personnel, who have special training and ex­perience in mobile electronics, set up and in­stall this product. NEVER SERVICE THIS
PRODUCT YOURSELF. Installing or servi­cing this product and its connecting cables
may expose you to the risk of electric shock
or other hazards, and can cause damage to
the navigation system that is not covered by
warranty.

! Read this manual fully and carefully before

installing your navigation system.

! Keep this manual handy for future refer-

ence.

! Pay close attention to all warnings in this

manual and follow the instructions care­fully.

! This navigation system may in certain cir-

cumstances display inaccurate position of
your vehicle, the distance of objects shown
on the screen, and compass directions. In
addition, the system has certain limita­tions, including the inability to identify one­way streets, temporary traffic restrictions
and potentially unsafe driving areas. Please
exercise your own judgement in the light of
actual driving conditions.

! As with any accessory in your vehicle’s in-

terior, the navigation system should not di­vert your attention from the safe operation
of your vehicle. If you experience difficulty
in operating the system or reading the dis­play, please make adjustments while safely
parked.

! Please remember to wear your seat belt at

all times while operating your vehicle. If
you are in an accident, your injuries can be
considerably more severe if your seat belt
is not properly fastened.

! Certain country and government laws may

prohibit or restrict the placement and use
of this system in your vehicle. Please com­ply with all applicable laws and regulations
regarding the use, installation and opera­tion of your navigation system.

Precautions before
connecting the system

CAUTION

! If you decide to perform the installation

yourself, and have special training and ex­perience in the mobile electronics instal­lations, please carefully follow all of the
steps in the installation manual.

! Secure all wiring with cable clamps or

electrical tape. Do not allow any bare wir­ing to remain exposed.

! Do not directly connect the yellow lead of

this product to the vehicle battery. If the
lead is directly connected to the battery,
engine vibration may eventually cause
the insulation to fail at the point where
the wire passes from the passenger com­partment into the engine compartment. If
the yellow lead’s insulation tears as a re­sult of contact with metal parts, short-cir­cuiting can occur, resulting in
considerable danger.

! It is extremely dangerous to allow cables

to become wound around the steering col­umn or gearstick. Be sure to install this
product, its cables, and wiring away in
such so that they will not obstruct or hin­der driving.

! Make sure that the cables and wires will

not interfere with or become caught in
any of the vehicle’s moving parts, espe­cially the steering wheel, gearstick, hand­brake, sliding seat tracks, doors, or any of
the vehicle’s controls.

! Do not route wires where they will be ex-

posed to high temperatures. If the insula­tion heats up, wires may become
damaged, resulting in a short circuit or
malfunction and permanent damage to
the product.

! Do not cut the GPS aerial cable to shorten

it or use an extension to make it longer.
Altering the aerial cable could result in a
short circuit or malfunction.

! Do not shorten any leads. If you do, the

protection circuit (fuse holder, fuse resis­tor or filter, etc.) may fail to work properly.

! Never feed power to other electronic pro-

ducts by cutting the insulation of the
power supply lead of the navigation sys­tem and tapping into the lead. The current
capacity of the lead will be exceeded,
causing overheating.

Before installing this product

! Use this unit with a 12-volt battery and ne-

gative earthing only. Failure to do so may
result in a fire or malfunction.

! To avoid shorts in the electrical system, be

sure to disconnect the (–) battery cable be­fore installation.

To prevent damage

WARNING

! Use speakers over 50 W (output value)

and between 4 W to 8 W (impedance value).
Do not use 1 W to 3 W speakers for this
unit.

! The black lead is earth. Please earth this

lead separately from the earth of high-cur­rent products such as power amps. Do not
earth more than one product together
with the earth from another product. For
example, you must separately earth any
amp unit away from the earth of this navi­gation system. Connecting earths to­gether can cause a fire and/or damage the
products if their earths became detached.

! When replacing the fuse, be sure to only

use a fuse of the rating prescribed on this
product.

! When disconnecting a connector, pull the

connector itself. Do not pull the lead, as
you may pull it out of the connector.

! This product cannot be installed in a vehi-

cle without ACC (accessory) position on
the ignition switch.

do not directly earth the * side of the
speaker lead or connect the * side of an­other side of the speaker lead together. Be
sure to connect the * side of the speaker
lead to the * side of the speaker lead on
this navigation system.

! If the RCA pin jack on this product will not

be used, do not remove the caps attached
to the end of the connector.

Notice for the blue/white lead

! When the ignition switch is turned on (ACC

ON), a control signal is output through the
blue/white lead. Connect to an external
power amp’s system remote control term­inal, the auto-aerial relay control terminal,
or the aerial booster power control terminal
(max. 300 mA 12 V DC). The control signal
is output through the blue/white lead, even
if the audio source is switched off.

! Be sure not to use this lead as the power

supply lead for the external power amps.
Such connection could cause excessive
current drain and malfunction.

! Be sure not to use this lead as the power

supply lead for the auto-aerial or aerial
booster. Such connection could cause ex­cessive current drain and malfunction.

ACC position No ACC position

! To avoid short-circuiting, cover the discon-

nected lead with insulating tape. It is espe­cially important to insulate all unused
speaker leads, which if left uncovered may
cause a short circuit.

! Attach the connectors of the same colour

to the corresponding coloured port, i.e.,
blue connector to the blue port, black to
black, etc.

! Refer to the owner ’s manual for details on

connecting the power amp and other units,
then make connections accordingly.
